Tips and hints to help plan your travel this winter break

With the winter break in sight, here are a handful of tips and hints which may be helpful for finding cheaper travel: 

Visit the Save The Student website for a variety of the latest student travel deals.

Other money tips 

  • ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ schemes allow you to pay for shopping in installments. It is worth noting that missed or late payments could negatively impact your credit score – or boost it if you pay on time.
  • Student bank accounts offer benefits like sign-up perks and interest-free overdrafts. See if a student bank account could be right for you.

Further information and support 

  • The SUSU Advice Centre can provide you with free, independent, and confidential advice and information on practical matters.
  • The Student Hub is your first point of contact for questions and concerns relating to fees, financial support and more.
  • Visit the Cost of Living SharePoint site for all up-to-date information on financial support available to you at the University and discounts on campus.  

Other tips this winter break 

  • If you are not staying in halls over the break, please leave your heater on the lowest ‘frost’ setting, rather than turning the heating off entirely. This will help us reduce our carbon footprint (and prevent pipes from freezing).
